1.) Browns are... Well... They have an amazing defense. I'm curious what they will do for offense, once people shut down the passing game. 2.) The tribe has won 10 in a row, and HOST a playoff game? WTF? 3.) Fox can suck a big fat one, after deciding that the Broncos Eagles game wasn't competitive enough to keep broadcasting. You have no idea the rage my wife unleashed at the tv when James Brown came on, and said they were taking it to San Diego because it was a more competitive game. Peyton Fucking Manning was on TV. She didn't want to watch two teams see who could suck less to win a game. she wanted to watch Peyton Fucking Manning. In turn, this made my early evening hell. Fuck You Fox.

IN our area, the game was blacked out on the Direct TV Football package, because it was available on a normal channel.

How does it work there if you have satellite TV - do you still get terrestrial channels? NZ is moving to an all-digital model, so even the free channels come off satellites.

I guess my question is: Do people who have Direct TV have the "normal" channels?

I love NFL Game Pass - it's fantastic to go back and re-watch a series or play or whatever, or watch all the games in the week if I had the time and inclination. Only issue is I can't put it on my TV yet (no Game Pass for Samsung store, yet). I'm looking at a dongle that runs android to any USB-capable TV so I can run it on that.

I should note that the Denver Ponies played as if Jack Del Rio was already working for USC... Romo was scorching the secondary, and actually put bigger raw numbers on almost every category than Peyton, and also higher QBR.

Yeah, the Denver secondary that looked lights out for the most part the previous 4 games looked pedestrian if not horrid...

How much does it suck to be a Texans fan? They got good during the height of Payton and the Colts dominance of that division. When Manning goes down and the colts fall off the Earth Schaub gets injured and their playoff hopes die early. The Colts pick up a stud in Luck and look like they'll be dominate again and now the core of the Texans are too old to keep up with the younger Colts.

This of course assumes there are such things as a fan of the Texans.

We live in a society where people born on third base constantly try to steal second, yet we expect people born with two strikes against them to hit a homerun on the first pitch.
